There's nothing particularly new here, but it does offer a cinematic reminder that -- if you were ever (God forbid) to lose your child prematurely to the great hereafter, don't try to replace him or her by adopting an older child (and for that matter, if your dog dies, don't run out and adopt the same breed of dog and give it the exact same name as your deceased, as I've seen once before. It creeps my shit out).
